The IRS Human Capital Officer should coordinate with the Chief, Facilities Management and Security Services, to update hiring process workflow instructions to include alerting applicants to upcoming deadlines in the fingerprinting process. These instructions should also ensure that applicants are informed to complete the fingerprinting process within a certain time frame that will allow the Personnel Security function sufficient time to complete the remaining initial security checks steps. If the applicant is unable to complete the fingerprinting process within the given time frame, then a reason should be provided and should be added to the prospective employee’s file.
